Definition of "wrapper"?

I think I more or less understand what a ?wrapper? is, but I?d like to hear
how more experienced R users define it, and especially I'd like to know if
there is a formal definition.  In my reading, it seems like there are a
fairly wide range of meanings, but they are all conceptually similar.

I've looked in a couple of the classic R texts, the extensions and
developers' manuals, and R help archives, and didn't find a definition.  Of
course, I may have missed it.

Thanks in advance.  Bryan
